The Week In Shows: 2/26/18-3/4/18

A nondescript Friday evening seems as good a time as any to plot ones weekly live music schedule, I think. Let's take a look at what's happening in the greater DC metro this week, shall we? Hot diggity!

Sweet mercy it's been a week. There's an awful lot of crazy going on out there, friends. Be careful and be vigilant. And remember to take some time to escape from the crazy every now and again, such as by taking in some live music. And now, without further ado, here's a look at some of the shows I happen to recommend for the coming week in the greater DC metro area. Bonus: catch yours truly at any show with an asterisk next to it.

And as an aside, if you've got a show coming up you'd like me to consider including in my weekly calendar, just shoot me an email with "Calendar" somewhere in the subject line. Thanks y'all!
